NOTE
The column movement stops automatically if the emergency stop plate at the
bottom is pressed upward. Clear any obstruction before moving the X-ray
unit again.
NOTE
The adapter detaches itself from the patient support base if subjected to
excessive load. This is a safety feature that ensures that the patient's
head cannot get stuck if the patient faints or begins to fall when they are
positioned in the X-ray unit.
NOTE
When positioning seated patients (e.g. in a wheelchair) always first move the
X-ray unit down before you position the patient in the X-ray unit.
NOTE
Cone beam imaging should not be used for routine (or screening)
examinations. The imaging examinations must be justified for each patient to
demonstrate that the benefits outweigh the risks.
NOTE
When it is likely that evaluation of soft tissues will be required as part of the
patient’s radiological assessment, conventional CT or MR medical imaging
should be used rather than CBCT.
NOTE
Before taking an exposure, ask any female patient of childbearing age
whether she might be pregnant. The X- ray unit is not intended for use on
pregnant women.
